HospoGuy — Founded by Bernard Burke
25 Years Living and Breathing Hospitality
Coffee. Conversations. Connections.
HospoGuy exists because too many accommodation operators have no one to ask for advice in our industry.
Trusted practical support
Hospitality advice from someone who has actually done the work
Bernard Burke has spent more than two decades working across motels, hotels, apartment hotels and resorts throughout New Zealand. HospoGuy brings that experience together as a free, sponsor-funded resource for operators who want clear answers, useful introductions and grounded industry conversations.
